Is ChatGPT The New Cool Digital Marketing Tool?

Elon Musk, the founder of ChatGPT has recently signed a letter, asking to halt further development in AI till we are clear about the precise impacts of AI. Just a couple of days ago, we learned about ChaosGPT, an AI whose top command is to “destroy humanity”. So, the entire situation seems a little scary and murky right now. So, the all-important question for us in the field of digital marketing is how great ChatGPT is as a digital marketing tool. Let us see if we can have a conclusive answer to this question.

What is ChatGPT?

If you are a tech genius, of course, you can skip this part. But if you are, like most of us, a little moldy from all the latest developments, then reading this part will help. A generative AI tool, ChatGPT creates art, music, video, and text using natural language processing or NLP. The process is relatively easy. You enter a text like “Tell me about the Mughal period in India” and boom, you will get content! So, sure it can be fun! Besides, it also has the far-reaching ability to help people and society.

ChatGPT and Digital Marketing

As a digital marketing tool or medium, ChatGPT can help you with competitor analysis, topic research, and performance measurement. So you can see why the AI situation is hotcake right now and why everyone is rushing to get a new one out in the market before even a new dawn breaks. In early February, Google released Bard, a conversational AI. But what about the traps and pitfalls? What about the inherent prejudices and biases of humans behind these AI tools? What can we do to ensure that the cons never outrun the pros and that chaos never gets the chance to roam free?

Wisely Use ChatGPT

Just as you should be careful while downloading things on public systems, you should also be mindful of the data stored on an AI application. The data used by the creator improve services but it is also a part of the data collective which no longer belongs to any one individual anymore. Simply put, since the data is not private anymore, users must seriously consider how to apply the technology.

Data, Writing, and ChatGPT

AI tools, like humans, know more and can do more with training. ChatGPT, with a huge tome of information, thus has significant data that humans have written over the years. As a result, writers of every kind may face or are already facing challenges with many content creators and digital marketers claiming that their careers are over. If you are one of them, step back from the noise and take a moment to think: ChatGPT is new but writing assistants are not; they have been functioning since the 1980s. Proper AI tools only appeared in the last decade and many writers, since then, have already incorporated AI tools in their writing strategies. But honestly, there are some things that only a human brain can produce. ChatGPT cannot:
  • Generate original ideas
  • Quality and fact-checking are not an AI tool’s forte. That is still predominantly a human quality.
  • Won’t give you emotions which is like the root of content writing. We humans still ace that!

So Can We Use ChatGPT for Digital Marketing?

Sure, we can. Before I tell you how humans are better than any AI tool out there, let me quickly note down the points ChatGPT does aid the cause of digital marketing.
  • Content

Using ChatGPT, you can generate broad outlines or opening sentences. It basically helps your thought flow when you are stuck.
  • Audience Research

ChatGPT can analyze large volumes of data and segment customers on the basis of age, preferences, and behaviors.
  • Personalized Experiences

It can recommend products or content tailored so that you can better meet customers’ needs and demands, driving engagement and building trust.
  • Competitor Research

It can conduct SWOT analyses to find out your competitor’s strengths and weaknesses. Additionally, it can indicate the threats and opportunities that you face and suggest areas where you can be better.
  • Digital Marketing Campaigns

By strategizing, selecting effective channels of campaigning, and measuring performances, ChatGPT can greatly help you craft promotional campaigns for your brand.But as I said, an AI digital marketing tool like ChatGPT is limited. After all, it does not possess the abilities that we humans do to receive new data and change courses on the basis of it. And this is where human intelligence will always remain superior!Also, Read: AI PARADOX: CHATGPT AND CONTENT MARKETING
